dow we liveblogged the archive experience starting around here: NEIL YOUNG ARCHIVES BOX: IT'S REALLY HAPPENING

Karl Malone, Saturday, 23 December 2017 03:49 (seven years ago)

To return to the results of the poll, only now do I notice that Zuma didn't do very well at all. I think it's up there with the best of his 70s run. Any love for that record? I suppose Cortez the Killer might overshadow the rest of the albums material?

Thomas NAGL (Neil S), Saturday, 23 December 2017 08:55 (seven years ago)

"album's"

Thomas NAGL (Neil S), Saturday, 23 December 2017 08:57 (seven years ago)

Harvest, Comes a Time, Harvest Moon, Freedom, Stars 'N Bars all got robbed, don't think this old poll is v representative of anything

I mean Doghouse wasn't even a poll option

niels, Saturday, 23 December 2017 09:38 (seven years ago)

I think the top three are pretty undeniable, but yeah it's perhaps representative only of what an amazing body of work he's produced

Thomas NAGL (Neil S), Saturday, 23 December 2017 09:54 (seven years ago)

Sleeps with Angels is good 90s Neil, but I don't hold it up with the 70s stuff.

The self titled debut is a really good record and it got no votes. The strings and production on that one are really unique for his discography, it's kinda the only time he made a record with a bunch of ringers. Earl Palmer and Carol Kaye play on that record, which is pretty neat to think for a Neil Young album.

Singer songwriters were all over the place in that time using bands. It was more common for the singer songwriter to use studio ringers with maybe 1-2 persons from their live bands or not cutting their LPs. Neil used some guests, but most of the time his live band was who made his records.

earlnash, Sunday, 24 December 2017 00:04 (seven years ago)

the self titled definitely benefitted the most from the remaster

Joan Digimon (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 24 December 2017 01:50 (seven years ago)

Sleeps With Angels is my favorite post-'70s Neil album. it's a slow burner and vv beautiful i think.

omar little, Sunday, 24 December 2017 02:47 (seven years ago)

kinda think Time Fades Away would've placed higher if it'd gotten the same reissue treatment On the Beach did back in the early 00s.

Every Generation Gets The Human Highway It Deserves: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/neil-young-daryl-hannah-western-movie-to-premiere-at-sxsw-w516214

"Time is fluid in this far-fetched, whimsical western tale of music and love," reads a brief plot description released by the filmmakers. "Somewhere in the future past, The Man In the Black Hat hides out between heists at an old stagecoach stop with Jail Time, the Particle Kid, and an odd band of outlaws. Mining the detritus of past civilizations, they wait… for the Silver Eagle, for the womenfolk, and for the full moon's magic to give rise to the music and make the spirits fly."

Imagine The Weed Budget!

Never Learn To Mike Love (C. Grisso/McCain), Thursday, 1 February 2018 21:23 (seven years ago)

are Jail Time and The Particle Kid two people, or is it Jail Time, The Particle Kid? Because I hope it's the latter.

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 1 February 2018 21:41 (seven years ago)

tylerw, Friday, 16 February 2018 19:52 (seven years ago)

but it seems like the good news is that neil is committed to releasing physical product? i had a sinking feeling that he was going to be like "here's homegrown, available for premium level subscribers in hi-rez only mwahhahaha!"

tylerw, Friday, 16 February 2018 19:54 (seven years ago)

pono fomo?

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Friday, 16 February 2018 19:55 (seven years ago)

HAPPY PARADOX SOUNDTRACK DAY EVERYONE!!!!

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 13:57 (seven years ago)

hmm...we're starting with....an almost identical version of "Show Me" off Peace Trail

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:40 (seven years ago)

classic neil

playing in his high school band “The Velvet Pickle” (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:40 (seven years ago)

movie's streaming on netflix now too omg

tylerw, Friday, 23 March 2018 14:43 (seven years ago)

okay now we got some formless jamming going on while people randomly yell "HEY!" over the track, digging this

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:47 (seven years ago)

pls to continue liveblogging this

Thomas NAGL (Neil S), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:48 (seven years ago)

and now....an instrumental version of "Show Me" that lasts one minute

now some solo neil electric just going "bum bum" on one note over and over and then some feedback

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:49 (seven years ago)

now a little porch pickin song with someone who's not neil singing "digging in the dirt/that's our way of life" that's a minute and a half long

these recurring instrumental thingys are called "paradox passage 1" etc etc....this one literally sound like Neil aimlessly playing acoustic on the couch while watching TV or something, give him a deal with feeding tube!

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:52 (seven years ago)

lol

sleeve, Friday, 23 March 2018 14:53 (seven years ago)

neil talking to some dude:

"looks like a full corn moon"

"yeah, a full barley moon"

"a magic time"

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:53 (seven years ago)

lol yes

tylerw, Friday, 23 March 2018 14:54 (seven years ago)

now another cover of a song he just released in 2016 - "Peace Trail", again almost identical so I guess if you wanted Neil to re-record that album with a worse drummer you are in luck!

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 14:55 (seven years ago)

what's the level of bongo content here

tylerw, Friday, 23 March 2018 14:56 (seven years ago)

haha definitely some bongo action in the mix!

like this is fine but Peace Trail is his best thing in recent memory specifically because of the vibe of Keltner's odd/cool approach to drums on that record and the weird use of autotune

next up....Pocahontas! starting out with some pipe organ noodling...there was just some live applause but sounded fake (maybe?)....this is basically him doing Pocahontas just like he did the doomy pipe organ version of Like a Hurricane on Unplugged

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:00 (seven years ago)

now some solo neil electric just going "bum bum" on one note over and over and then some feedback

gonna be honest, this is like the platonic ideal of electric neil to me

playing in his high school band “The Velvet Pickle” (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:01 (seven years ago)

okay applause at the end this is def actually a live cut

now....Cowgirl Jam....running time 10:35!

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:02 (seven years ago)

yeah i think some of this is live stuff drawn from either the desert trip fest or the telluride show?

tylerw, Friday, 23 March 2018 15:05 (seven years ago)

cowgirl jam is, as you'd expect, them jamming on the cowgirl in the sand changes....

like this is good, but again fucking #bongoalert, someone toss this hippie

this is obviously neil jamming electric so it's got a certain quality but i swear promise of the real is basically like "damn dogg u ever wish crazy horse had edie brickell and the new bohemian's rhythm section??"

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:08 (seven years ago)

damn ok they got into it around 7 minutes...

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:10 (seven years ago)

neil jamming electric is one of the pure sounds of music

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:10 (seven years ago)

agreed, i could listen to him play electric guitar probably from now until the end of time tbh

playing in his high school band “The Velvet Pickle” (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:12 (seven years ago)

i love the way his tone has, like, corroded over time

playing in his high school band “The Velvet Pickle” (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:13 (seven years ago)

"what was good"

"yeah that was good"

"lets go over here and smoke a beer"

"sip a joint"

The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 23 March 2018 15:13 (seven years ago)

low-key nice little cover of "angel flying to close to the ground" with (assuming) PoTR dude singing, actually very sweet little cover, standup bass, mandolin and acoustic guitars
